Notes
This recipe has been adapted for one person from the Ashoka restaurant in Scotland where
it allegedly out sells Chicken Tikka Masala by a factor of 10:1.
It was apparently developed for patrons that preferred Chinese food and is a fusion
between Indian and Chinese.
Coconut milk can be used as an alternative to cream or a mixture of both.
